Blue Christmas card

I seem to be on a blue theme at the moment. I made ths card at the weekend.

                                               
 The image is from Magic Moonlight I love her images. I put it in my Serif draw and changed the tone. The photo makes it look very blue but in "real life" it not quite as blue. I used my new Marianne die I think I will get lots of use out of this one. Papers are Bearly Mine and flowers from Wild Orchid
